mainlight. It was thru this that artists like "Dinamic two", "Vico-C", "Evy Queen" and Falo" found their very first outlets to bring their brand of music into the spotlight. (Without Vico C, Dinamic Two and Evy Queen the reggaeton genre would probably not exist.) Shanom is credited for having launched the career of many radio professionals in the island, mainly young aspiring students who later became active radio professionals. Some of his most outstanding parodies include a song that was created for the then-upcoming movie "Batman" (La Baticueva) an original song that gained international attention and also the early salsa versions of Michael Jackson's songs. This song became the most successful parody ever recorded in PR and was a hit in both The Americas and Europe. Shanom's parodies continued to impress the audience and that lead to yet another album, this time featuring most of Luis's work and out of the control of the radio station. He produced a morning show with international actor "Braulio Castillo" and local diva Mirayda Chavez and co-produced a radio network dedicated to children. Luis was instrumental in the revolution of internet radio in PR. Shanom later paired with one of his students and launched a successful internet radio station dedicated to [reggaeton]: Radio Actitud. This radio station has been re-broadcast in FM radio in both Mexico and Perú and helped launch the careers of various reggaeton artists. He currently works an adviser to radio stations in the island and the mainland.
